It's been a long time since award-winning journalist Tilly Arbuthnot had her last scoop. Now she's got the shady dealings of VACO Industries firmly in her sights. She's determined to prevent the unleashing of a biotech disaster. Unfortunately her informant may be dead. It's been a long time since the career of Fleet Street muckraker Roger Wilcox was destroyed by Sir Victor Ormond. Now he's back on the trail of the man in charge of VACO and this time he's going to nail the bastard. Unfortunately no one believes he's sober enough to do the job. They're on separate missions, but they'll have to pool their resources if they're going to stop Ormond. The clock is ticking.
